## Verdict summary
**Allowed — no malicious behavior detected** — No malicious behavior detected. 28 low-signal pattern(s) reviewed.

- **Verdict:** Clean
- **Product-default install policy:** Allow
- **Firewall policy:** No policy match
- **Public report status:** Published
- **Threat category:** None published
- **Selected version:** 1.1.76
- **Selected version is latest:** No
- **Analysis source:** AI Security Review (lpm-firewall-ai)

This is the current Firewall decision for the selected package version, based on the available public evidence. Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions.

AI assessment: clean; recommendation: mark clean. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy.

The flagged credential flows query Anthropic and GitHub for their own provider features, while the CLI requires a user-supplied Melaya token. The package has no install hook; its failure telemetry is bounded and opt-out, and browser downloads require explicit authorization.

## Latest scan
- **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1
- **Recorded final verdict:** Clean
- **Recorded analysis confidence:** 97.0%
- **Started:** 2026-11-04T17:24:28.562Z
- **Finished:** 2026-11-04T17:25:51.713Z
- **Download time:** 2070 ms
- **Static scan time:** 1699 ms

- **Total time:** 83151 ms

The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs.

## Security analysis

### Published attack-surface review

- **Summary:** No attack identified. The reviewed network and process behavior supports the runner’s provider discovery, sign-in, and setup features.

- **Trigger:** The user launches the CLI with a runner token; provider discovery also refreshes during an active runner session. Browser sign-in and browser downloads require a request or explicit authorization.

- **Impact:** No unintended credential transfer, account action, install-time collection, or destructive behavior was identified.

- **Review source:** ai\_review

- **Reviewed:** 2026-11-04T17:25:51.713Z

### AI review details

- **Review stage:** source\_first\_review

- **Mechanism:** Reads provider credentials to query the corresponding provider APIs for available models; failure telemetry goes to the configured Melaya server and has an opt-out. Metadata endpoints are handled by browser egress-blocking policy.

- **Rationale:** The flagged credential flows query Anthropic and GitHub for their own provider features, while the CLI requires a user-supplied Melaya token. The package has no install hook; its failure telemetry is bounded and opt-out, and browser downloads require explicit authorization.

- **Files touched:** ~/.claude/.credentials.json, ~/.config/github-copilot/apps.json, ~/.config/github-copilot/hosts.json, ~/.melaya-runner/github\_copilot.json, ~/.melaya/luma/storage-state.json, ~/.melaya-runner/bin/uv

- **Network endpoints:** api.anthropic.com, api.github.com, api.githubcopilot.com, api.melaya.org, 127.0.0.1, luma.com

### Review decision

- **Verdict:** Clean

- **Confidence:** 97.0%

- **Recommended action:** mark\_clean

- **Intent class:** Benign

- **False-positive risk:** Low

- **Evidence for AI clean decision:** The only lifecycle script is prepublishOnly, which runs the build; there is no install hook., The CLI requires a user-provided Melaya runner token and starts provider discovery when the runner is launched., Claude credentials are read for model discovery and sent to api.anthropic.com, their own service., GitHub Copilot credentials are read for model discovery and sent to api.github.com for a Copilot token exchange., Failure reporting is limited to the Melaya service, requires a supplied runner token, and can be disabled with MELAYA\_RUNNER\_NO\_TELEMETRY=1., Chromium download requires explicit authorization.

- **Evidence against:** Provider discovery reads local credential files, but the observed requests use the respective providers’ own API hosts., The failure report sends bounded operational fields rather than file contents, paths, usernames, hostnames, or error strings., The metadata addresses in the routing hint appear in browser network-blocking policy, not credential collection.

## Affected versions and remediation

This report applies to @melaya/runner@1.1.76.

- Review the evidence and your use of @melaya/runner@1.1.76 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report.
- Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe.
